I think we can easily unify vcpu initialization, populating/measure initial
memory, completing guest creation, and guest memory access for debug.

KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_UPDATE_VMSA <-> KVM_TDX_INIT_VCPU
KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_UPDATE_DATA and KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_MEASURE <-> KVM_INIT_MEM_REGION
KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_FINISH <-> KVM_TDX_FINALIZE_VM
KVM_SEV_DBG_DECRYPT, KVM_SEV_DBG_ENCRYPT: KVM common API for access protected guest memory


Here's my assessment. For now I don't address migration.

For creating confidential guest:

- Get the capability of underlying platform
  KVM_TDX_CAPABILITY: no sev correspondence.

- Initialize VM as confidential VM
  struct kvm_sev_launch_start
  KVM_SEV{,_ES}_INIT, and KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_START:
  KVM_TDX_INIT_VM
  They take vendor specific data.


- Initialize vcpu
  KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_UPDATE_VMSA: no extra argument
  KVM_TDX_INIT_VCPU:          no extra argument


- populate initial memory + measurement
  KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_UPDATE_DATA and KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_MEASURE,
  struct kvm_sev_launch_update_data {
        __u64 uaddr;
        __u32 len;
  };
  struct kvm_sev_launch_measure {
        __u64 uaddr;
        __u32 len;
  };
  => GPA is calculated from uaddr.

  KVM_INIT_MEM_REGION:
  struct kvm_tdx_init_mem_region {
        __u64 source_addr;      // uaddr
        __u64 gpa;
        __u64 nr_pages;
  };

  I think those can same structure. Or prefault or prepopulating
  e.g.
  struct {
        __u64 uaddr;
        __u64 gpa;
        __u64 len;
  #define FLAG_MEASURE    BIT(0)
  #define FLAG_GPA        BIT(1)  // GPA is valid or calculated from uaddr
        __u64 flags;
  };
  

- Complete initialization. Make the guest ready to run vcpu
  KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_FINISH: no argument
  KVM_TDX_FINALIZE_VM:   no argument

- KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_SECRET: no TDX correspondence
  struct kvm_sev_launch_secret


For guest debug

- KVM_SEV_DBG_DECRYPT, KVM_SEV_DBG_ENCRYPT: struct kvm_sev_dbg
  This is to read/write guest memory for debug. We can easily have a common
  API.

- KVM_SEV_GUEST_STATUS
  struct kvm_sev_guest_status
  No TDX correspondence
